African elephant, back side, Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania
‘Big Tusker’ elephant bull – the perspective reveals the size of its huge tusks almost touching the ground. . Large lone bull elephants make up most of the elephant population inside the crater. These gentle giants survived the ivory trade of the 80’s and display large impressive tusks. Matriarchal elephant herds are noticeably absent from the crater floor because the cows and calves tend to prefer the forested highlands. They sometimes appear at the crater rim but only rarely venture down into the grasslands.
